HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US!

They grow up so fast. Magazines, that is. Still, it’s hard to believe that “Her Mind” will blow out five candles on its cake this year. And to think it all started with a visitor’s guide.

“Our first publication was “Ellicott City and Beyond,” says Beth Ditman, co-president with Dorothy Doub of Columbia-based Custom Media Options, publisher of “Her Mind.” “In it, we featured four women entrepreneurs. We received such positive feedback that we knew there was an untapped niche in our own back yard.”
Since then, “Her Mind” has continued filling that niche with stories trumpeting the region’s amazing women, from glass-ceiling-shattering CEOs and financiers to artists, philanthropists and athletes. The magazine’s enduring success has left Ditman and Doub both happy and humbled.

“Even after five years, we are continually shocked by the sheer number of daily compliments we receive,” Doub says. “It motivates us to do better and keep on going.”
